Spandex suits.
Cars do not fly.
Gender is an animal tail.
Thoughts and intuition move freely within bounds set by terms of experiment.
Human species flattened into one entity.
Heads are connected.

Never a thought can pretend to be kept unshared.
A loner is no more.

“Predictions are uttered by prophets (free of charge); by clairvoyants (who usually
charge a fee, and are therefore more honored in their day than prophets); and by
futurologists (salaried). Prediction is the business of prophets, clairvoyants, and
futurologists. It is not the business of novelists. A novelist’s business is lying”.
From the introduction of the left hand of darkness, Ursula Le Guin.
